Double to single sided board

2009-01-14 by Kurt

I was wondering, I have a pretty good stash of double sided board, but very
little single sided.

I have been using Eagle to design my boards so far, and for the sake of
simplicity, I have been trying to keep to one sided designs. Plus the fact
that I have just learned about how to make a ground plane in Eagle, there is
not too much to etch on the bottom side, and a great big field to etch away
on the top.

Has anyone come up with a way to quickly strip the copper from one side of a
double sided board?

With practice, I hope to be able to align the patterns well enough to make a
good double sided board, but for now, I have been just trying to etch it
away.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
